The Belltown Inn is the budget night with a ride attached. Its shuttle runs to Pier 66 or Pier 91 for $10 a person, level with the Mediterranean Inn's, and the front desk holds your bags at no charge.
Rooms are plain, the Victrola coffee is free, and there's a rooftop deck and free bikes for the evening. Pier 66 is about half a mile by road, our estimate — so the shuttle is for the bags, not the distance.
There's no breakfast and no restaurant, and the $35 parking is at an off-site lot the inn calls limited and not guaranteed — a rate for your stay, not a cruise rate.
Sign up for the shuttle at check-in, the only time the inn takes names, and be in the lobby 5 to 10 minutes early.
Book it if
- Budget cruisers who want a ride
- Dog owners
- Anyone who'd rather walk Belltown than sit in a lobby
Look elsewhere if
- You want breakfast.
- You need a guaranteed parking space.
Your night before, from here
Check-in to gangway at Belltown Inn, built from what the hotel publishes plus our road estimates — the drive times are ours, not the hotel’s.
A plain Belltown inn with a rooftop deck, free bikes and free coffee. There's no restaurant.
$10 a person to Pier 66 or Pier 91, per the inn; sign up at check-in only.
No breakfast; free Victrola coffee every day.
Belltown Inn gives no distance to either pier. It's on 3rd Avenue in Belltown. Our road estimate is about 0.5 miles to Pier 66 and 3.1 miles to Pier 91 — empty-road figures, so pad them for traffic. Allow more than our estimate of 13 minutes from Belltown Inn to Pier 91 — that figure assumes empty roads.
Discounted parking at a nearby off-site lot, $35 a night plus tax, limited and not guaranteed; in and out until noon on departure day (the inn also says 11 AM). Nothing about leaving the car while you cruise.
Night-Before Score: 50 of 100
